A Lover's Catch 22
by
Laura Beth Leither
It's a never-ending circle, a catch 22
A young lover yearns, for her dream come true
When at last her prince arrives, to take her away
To be her one and only, until her dying day
But alas, all is not well, with this fair maiden see
Now every prince in her world, is drawn to her beauty
The lover must now choose, to stay or to depart
From the prince who had her love, right from the very start
She fell into the curse, and left to find the many
Hoping to try them all, and choose one from her plenty
But the world is not the same, as she'd known it once before
Every prince has his lady, whom he'll love forever more
The young lover is now caught, in a catch 22
She only wants true love, but knows not what to do
No prince will show his feelings, to be her one true love
Till she's head over heels, flying high above
